This blog is about Groucho, our fearless, bewhiskered, blessed with a wonderful sense of humour, who, thanks to the wonderful Westie Rescue (www.westierescue.ie) we were able to adopt and he is now our much loved Four Legged Family Member. We hope you enjoy reading about his adventures and his Westie view on life!

The New Camera Lens Strikes Again!!!!!!

Just when I thought it was safe ............. there I was, just checking out my territory - we were at one of my favourite historic places, where usually, at the time of day we were there, I have the place to myself - and it's great stuff, you can smell the ocean, I can roll on the grass, I can check the pee mail - but this time, there were some two legged people all dressed up having more photographs taken of them than the He Two Legged One was taking of me (and that's a lot!) - I heard the Two Legged Ones mention a 'wedding' and I was told I was NOT to go near these two legged ones (which of course I proceeded to do) as it was An Important Day for Them and They Would Not Want a Groucho In Their Photographs (really?? I thought I would add a special touch to their photographs!). Anyway, I was not best pleased with having to share 'my' place with them but I let it go - after all, it was big enough to share really but I did stare at them for a loooooong time, just to let them know who was boss of the place -

At this point, I figured the new camera lens was far enough away for me to do a few Westie Rolls safely, without that lens prying into my business but NOPE, the He Two Legged One managed to take this photograph of me - and, while I admit it's a bit annoying having to deal with all this attention and lack of privacy, secretly, I think this is quite an artistic shot and I'm happy enough to share it on that basis BUT this is NOT to say that I've come to terms with this lens thing ...... I'll find a way to outsmart it, I really will!!!
Woof for now.
Groucho

My people are the same. I can't do a thing without the camera in my face. If I am doing something that is not as photogenic as my Lady would like, she makes me stop. Sometimes I just want to lick myself in private!

Oh, I was DEFINITELY trying to be a wedding crasher! But, in my mind, it was for a good cause - I thought they would actually want a four legged one like me in their photos - but apparently they didn't - I thought this very strange ......
